Hi to all,
trying to find out some info on these two 20mm......first one a 20x110 Oerlikon,from the makers mark it is a US manufactured case,by the size of the manufactures mark I'm sure it was made for another country,as it is the same size and type as the ones marked on 20x110 Hispano cases supplied to BMARCo from the states,would the 606 marked on the headstamp indicate the country it was supplied to?

The second is a 20x110 Hispano,headstamped LOT 10 70 20MM( ICI supplied to BMARCo),has the extractor groove hand painted bright red,only other time I have seen this is on experimental 4.85x49mm proof rounds,any ideas on either of these?
